  1. Greg comes out swinging. I hope to never hear one and to never want one. Although with an audio-enabler like Jp, this will not be easy. namaan, nice haul. I have a bottle of the pvw 20 that I haven't opened yet. I've heard it's pretty damn close to the pvw 23 and a lot less money.
  2. If I did, he might have won but then would have been disqualified. I counseled him against that and controlling the head.
  3. He then lost the next two matches. This was his first tournament. One win out of three is not bad considering the people he went up against have been doing this for at least a few years.
  4. Just watched my son win his first high school wrestling match at 145 lbs.
  5. Very cool Greg!
  6. a/k/a Mr. CanJam.
  7. This is a job for JP#'s.
  8. That is sweet. There is something to be said for the simplicity of this: or this:
  9. The Miles Davis Channel on Sirius/XM 11/20 - 11/25.

    Canjam 2010.

    I will be there if it doesn't conflict with family vacation.
  11. Wow, NJ, now that's far, I wouldn't do it either. And I'm sure there are no good audiologists in the City. You are better off without them. Don't give in to peer pressure.
  12. Well, I did say it was "not bad". I will say that I thought the bacon flavor was more subtle, at least the ones we tasted.
  13. Happy Birthday Billy!
  14. Alex, Happy Birthday!
  15. My wife went to Vosges Haut Chocolate Boutique while in Vegas. Chocolate made with bacon is not bad.
  16. Anyone that still posts or has the ability to post on HF, it would be great to talk this up in the meet thread over there. I wouldn't normally care, but would like as big a turnout as possible for Zu.
  17. The more I read, the more I realize that at the moment I wouldn't have any use for this. I don't run anything at the moment that uses an power adapter. The uln-2 can be powered in that manner but I power it from my firewire port. Everything else is a power cord (only 2 pieces of gear) into the wall. The Sigma ps are excellent and less money. It would be nice to do a comparison. Pics of the insides would be nice as well. I wonder is someone with some pull in the industry, cough, jp #'s aka Mr. CanJam, could convince Vinnie to send one for the meet.
  18. Here is a link to Vinnie's site: Products > Black Lightning - Red Wine Audio Any thoughts on whether this is a good product and priced right. I tend to think that the RWA gear is way overpriced for what you get.
  19. Great news Aimless!
  20. I am going to ask them to bring one or two for us to try out.
  21. Mark Selby - And the Horse Rode On In
  22. The Zu guys are in for sure. They are good with alternating throughout the day and then at say 6 or so, taking over the room. I would hope that as many people as possible come back, after dinner and spend the night with the Zu people. In speaking to my contact, they are about the music and the party. They of course want to sell speakers. I made it clear to them, that there would be no promises in that regard and he understood. You can read about some of the parties and the concept on their website: Zu Audio Tour There is a possibility that they will bring Mark Selby and his wife to play acoustic, no amps for us.
  23. It looks like this could work out. There are a few ways to do it. The room the meet is in is 1200 sq.ft. and can be divided into 2 rooms, one 800 and the other 400 sq.ft. This creates a sound problem in the headphone area. I can get a hotel room and use that during the time the headphone meet is going. It's not a big area. If we went this route, we could end the headphone meet at say 4 and then get an early dinner and Zu can move from the hotel room to the main room, probably the smaller of the two rooms and we can go from 6 until whenever. I have the room pretty much as long as I want, figuring that 11 pm would be the latest we would go. The other alternative is to have them to partition the meet room and have them there all day, alternating one hour on and one hours off. Then have it speaker only from 6 or 7 on. Let's face it, it's not like meets are quiet. Let me know what you guys think. I am leaning towards inviting them.
  24. I read recently that Zu Audio has is promoting what they call Zu parties. You can find information about them on their website. I am interested in the new Essence speaker so this is of particular interest to me. To make a long story short, I spoke to the guy that handles this who is located in Atlanta. He has the date open and is willing to come down with a few sets of their speakers, Peachtree Nova and their cables. He also mentioned some new gear that has not been announced. I am trying to figure out if I can accommodate him. I've explained who we are and what a meet is. Despite that, he is still interested. I wanted to see if this is of interest to others.
